I never imagined I would advance so fast, but with national champion instructors and all the support you could wish for, I was able to accomplish much more than I dreamed ... The training process, with all of the ups and downs, made me love my pole family that much more and it brought me to a whole new level of respect for those who do put themselves out there for others to watch.
